Drldee Across Platte.
A correspondent in to-day's paper
mentions, among other subjects upon
which we need legislation at the com
ing cession, the building of a bridge
across the Platte River
There i not a man in Nebraska who
has not deplored the disadrantages of
having to cross this stream, and all
agree that it has been the cause of
more sectional feeling than any other
one thing in the Territory. If a good
durable bridge could be constructed
across it, this "nerth and south Platte"
feeling would be measurably dune
surround us; we need to have our
whole country advertised.
These and many more things we
need, and con Id secure through a judi
cious concert of action. Will vre have
it?

Mr. Editor: As the election
now over, would it not be well to ex
amine the condition of our Territorial
affairs, , and ascertain whether there
are any measures which our Legisla
ture could pass that would be of bene
fit to The Territory, or future State.
I am of opiaion,that there are several
such measures, and my object in writ
ing ibis communication is to bring
those measures before the public, and
invite discussion of their
Altcriiey General of the State, and re
tubed to receive votes of men not reg
istered in 1S65; ihat half a dozen of
the two hundred forty judges, and per
haps twenty of the seven hundred
special policemen were not men of
good moral character; and that the
Radicals have a better chance than the
Conservatives for being appointed on
the Police force.
It is difficult to see how official mis
conduct tan be made out of this, and
especially as it is notorious that the
elections for the past two years were
more orderly than ever bt-fore.
